Hibachi Japanese Grill

Hibachi on King Street faces some tough competition. Serving up Japanese cuisine, it sits somewhere between the casualness of Takitori and fine dining feel of Hanabishi.

To start with we were served a complimentary dish of beanshoots soaked in what may have been miso? Whilst not exactly a treat on the eyes, it was actually a lot more tastier than it looks.

For the main fare I ordered the chicken katsu curry (which for some strange reason appeared on my menu, but not on the menu of two of my fellow diners). It was actually one of the best chicken katsu curries I have had in a while - the chicken was tender and juicy, the sauce flavoursome and the salad on the side was a nice accompaniment.

If you're in the mood for some Katsu Curry, Hibachi Japanese Grill is definitely an excellent option.

I once had a colleague tell me that every new place I tried was "my new fave”. While there may be a skerrick of truth to her statement, I blame it on living in Melbourne – one of the best food destinations of the world.

That being said, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned from a substandard feed - no one deserves to waste their calories on anything but mind-blowing, tongue tingling taste sensations.

Hence came the blog - a platform to explore the sensational, mediocre and life changing meals that Melbourne has to offer.
